Technically ORIGINALLY Mario was called Jumpman and the thinking behind him was "man to fight Donkey Kong".
Edit: And Arc, the avatar is just something that seemed funny at the time.

Yes, Mario was originally based on Alice, with a sewer pipe in place of a rabbit hole. He was named after the landlord of NOA's first warehouse.

Glad you said NOA, cause I doubt there's anyone living in Japan right now named "Mario".

Acutally I think that the warp pipes idea came from Star Trek.

...I really really doubt that, Ryu.

Really.

An Alice reference seems more likely methinks.

Its probably not true, but i thought I would toss it out there regardless.

On another note I am really starting to hate doing tournaments in Kingdom Hearts 2

Ugh I hate the solar cycle thing, it seems even though I kick the heartless ass, the weight gets too much no matter what.

Yeah. That part was annoying. Easiest way for me turned out to be Trinity Limit -> Master Form -> Trinity Limit.

Well the problem mostly comes from with Sora alone 4 on 1 against the Final Fantasy Crew I had to resort to cheap ass stuff to win.

I hate doing cheap ass stuff to win.

Sooner or later I figured out "Hey why not use Tron!" and then I kick their ass, then I accidently went back and had to do it all over again.

As you can expect, the Universe will be destroyed in 10 minutes because of so.

So now people are worried that there won't be any wave-dashing in Brawl.

...what the fuck was wave-dashing supposed to do anyway?

Running was harder to cancel out of than wavedashing, characters with low traction used it as a way to move around, and it was used quite well in mindgames.

Luigi was gimped in Melee if the player didn't know how to wavedash because his running attack was shitty, so wave-dashing is a godsend to him in that game.

There's always the possibility of improving the running in the next one...

Huh. Didn't know about wavedashing before.

However, I did just find this.

I read about wavedashing.

Never did it though.

I wonder if it's all it's cracked up to be.
